Our muscles are nature's perfect actuators: devices that transform energy into movement. Because of their size, muscle fibers are more powerful and precise than most synthetic actuators. They can even heal from damage and become stronger with exercise.
For these reasons, engineers are studying ways to power robots with natural muscles. They have demonstrated a handful of "biohybrid" robots that use muscle actuators to power artificial skeletons that walk, swim, pump, and grasp. But each robot has a very different structure, and there is no overall plan for getting the most out of muscles.
